Causes of HERPES

Herpes simplex viruses spread from person to person through close contact (.contagious disease) and one can get a herpes simplex virus from touching a herpes sore. Most people, however, get herpes simplex from an infected person who does not have sores. A person with HSV-1 (herpes simplex type 1) can pass it to someone else by – kissing, touching the person’s skin, such as pinching a child’s cheek or by sharing objects such as silverware, lip balm, or a razor.1^,2

Genital herpes may be transmitted through sexual contact with someone having HSV-1 or HSV-2. Infection may also be transmitted through contact with mucosal surfaces, genital secretions or oral secretions (saliva) from infected partner who may not have visible sores — and produce herpes sores on the genitals. An infected mother can pass the herpes virus to the baby during childbirth. 1^,2

Ayurveda indicates that Sarasapika is associated with raktadosha and kaphadosha. The aggravating causes of herpes can be categorized into three - sexual intercourse, fever and urinary disease. 3
